Brian Lopes has chosen to ride a GT for the 2002 season. Having already signed with Fox Racing Shox and Oakley World Dual Champion, "Flyin" Brian decided to keep his relationship with GT. The company, recently purchased by Pacific, will provide Brian with frames and a truck for his Norba and World Cup travels. Stik, former wrench (and current husband) to Leigh Donovan, reported on stiksandstones he may accompany Lopes as his tech support for the season.
